Seattle free travel guide

Seattle is located on the west coast of the United States. This is a very splendid and symbolic American city. All kinds of entertainment and e-sports competitions are held here. It is a paradise for young people. This is the tour guide in Seattle.

This is where Tom Hanks and meg ryan met, and where Tang Wei and Wu Xiubo met. However, what I really yearn for here is such a photo:

On the skyline of the bustling city, a snow-capped mountain with perfect shape appeared, just like science fiction. Why do you feel this way?

Snow-capped mountains that don't melt all the year round, whether at high latitude or high altitude, are usually not livable places.

And a triangle with such a perfect shape can only be a volcano. So how did Seattle do it? Look at the map, look at the map.

Seattle is located at the northwest end of the United States, and its latitude is similar to that of Harbin. It is not surprising that the volcano with an altitude of 4392 meters crouches here, with snow all year round.

It is spring in Seattle all year round, and it seldom drops below 0 degrees in winter, which is really amazing.

It turns out that Seattle is not only backed by the Pacific Ocean, but also embraces the Pacific Ocean wholeheartedly.

The "Alaska Warm Current" sent from the Pacific Ocean brought warmth to Seattle, as well as white clouds, dark clouds, light rain, moderate rain and heavy rain.

There are 226 cloudy days or rainy days every year, which is the price of spring days all the year round. However, this does not mean that we have to travel around Seattle with umbrellas and raincoats.

26 days of rain means 139 days of sunshine. Fortunately, these 139 days are mostly distributed in summer. I don't need to say the rest.

Well, after all that astronomy and geography, what's interesting about Seattle?

If you want me to list landmarks like the Arc de Triomphe and the Louvre, Seattle is really rare. But Seattle can subvert the way this scenic spot is filmed.

In other words, in Seattle, there are not many places dedicated to tourists. The correct way to play is to blend in with the locals.

For example, there is a place called Olympic Sculpture Park. The name on such a tall building feels like the Bird's Nest Water Cube. However, the place where the goose is painted is this style:

What the hell is this? But, but, pay attention to the buddy sitting under the statue.

This is the right way to visit Seattle.

For example, in the cool evening breeze, take a walk at the seaside and walk the dog and baby with passers-by.

Rainy days make the air here particularly fresh, and even the busiest street corners are spotless.

Occasionally, I will see some strange statues. Let's guess what this means.

This pile of desks and chairs is called "lovelorn". See again?

You might say, it's good, but it's not worth flying for, is it?

However, when you turn the corner and see this little brother braingate looking into the distance, you can't help wondering, what is he looking at?

Follow his sight.

After all, this is Seattle. No matter how ugly the tower crane is, it can form a perfect composition with the snow-capped mountains. This photo should have a name. After thinking about various poems, I decided to name it four triangles.

There are many pleasant places like this, such as seaside parks and park squares.

It looks a bit like a tourist attraction, but the sea breeze is blowing in the hydrophilic park, listening to the music from the pub, and there are not many tourists taking pictures around.

Pike market is not an antique Yiwu commodity street. It's bustling here, and most of them are locals. The following two photos are from the Internet. You see, I forgot to take pictures of tourists when I was integrated into the local area.

What if you say, well, these are all good, but I just want to go to famous scenic spots and take the most classic travel photos?

Then the answer must be the skyline photo at the beginning of the article. This classic photo location is called Kerry Park, which is a small park located in the residential area of the rich in the Mid-Levels.

It used to be a pleasant community park, but now it is crowded with photographers from all walks of life. I arrived at dusk and it didn't disappoint me. The looming snow-capped mountains in the distance give Seattle a different kind of magic.

In the bloody sky, between the urban forests, a sun or moon suddenly appeared?

I stayed until the night fell completely, and the moonlight in the city lit up my dream, and finally I spent a sleepless night in Seattle.

In this skyline, besides the ethereal snow-capped mountains, the dazzling white tower is undoubtedly the most eye-catching. The magic of this tower is that all the tourists in Seattle are concentrated here. Well, they are all tourists.

This tower is called "Space Needle", which is a cool name.

Unlike the Oriental Pearl in Shanghai and Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the Space Needle is neither a TV tower nor an office building. It is used for sightseeing and was built for the 1962 World Expo. Oh, another restaurant lied to you.

However, as a sightseeing _ watchtower, it is only 184 meters high (468 meters for the Oriental Pearl and 828 meters for the Burj Dubai).

Therefore, Burj Khalifa's feeling of "being in the clouds" has been forgotten, but this height has narrowed the distance from the surrounding buildings, from "bird's eye view" to "integration". This is what downtown Seattle looks like on the space needle:

"Bird's eye view" or "integration" is different. However, the gardens and glass in Chihu Lake under the space needle seem to be ordinary "must-see attractions", but they are well worth visiting.

A large number of glass works by one-eyed artist Dale Chihuly are on display here. They are very clever and imaginative. It turns out that glass can also be concave like this.

At first, Seattle was a city worth experiencing, giving people with different interests a completely different look. We have seen her attraction to leisure walkers, photographers, landmark signers and art lovers.

Looking back now, how did Seattle prosper? It was the gold rush in the early years, the Klondike Gold Rush-Seattle Unit National Historical Park, which can be stamped with a national park passport! ), but what I want to say is that after World War II, many of our lives are closely related to Seattle. Guess which company is in Seattle?

You can visit the real Boeing production line. You can see every step from a pile of iron sheets to the final installation of the seat. However, it should be noted that the production line is not allowed to take pictures now. So, the picture above comes from the network.

The production line is not allowed to take photos, but there is also a museum in the Boeing factory, so you can experience and take photos at will.

The place is not big, but the children have a good time.

There is also a replica of the International Space Station. Yes, Boeing also produces this.

Maybe you are not interested in this heavy industry because of petty bourgeoisie, so Seattle won't make you feel strange, because it is still her hometown.

The first Starbucks in the world is located in the park square mentioned above. In addition to the pilgrimage of the first Starbucks, Seattle also opened the "Starbucks Baking Experience Hall" for fans.

Here, you can see the whole coffee production line, from unpacking, stirring, baking to packaging, to grinding beans and brewing until it reaches your hands.

In addition to Boeing and Starbucks, Seattle is also home to Microsoft and Amazon. However, as a code farmer, I have no interest in visiting software companies.

What I want to say is that there are many treasures hidden under the beautiful skyline of Seattle. For example, various museums and art exhibitions, such as wild nightclubs and quiet campuses, always have special significance for you.

For me, Seattle has another very unique meaning, which is concentrated in such an inconspicuous place.

It's me in front. I am so ugly. Please forgive me. I'll explain why I did it later. This is a rough cave colossus named fremont Troll, which is located under the viaduct in the suburb of Seattle. What does this statue have to do with me?

It proves my dream of traveling around the world.

In 2008, I was about to graduate from college and hated my major. I accidentally saw such a video on the Internet, and my life goal was completely refreshed:

Seeing Zheng Da variety show since childhood, I know that the world is really wonderful, and I planted grass in my heart; But this group is called "Where the hell is Matt?" It is the direct motivation for me to take immediate action.

This guy releases his latest achievements every year or two, such as 20 12 video. There are fewer natural attractions and more people, but it seems to be more tearful:

Every time I see my mouth watering, the place where he dances becomes my goal.

Today, nearly 10 years later, I can proudly announce that I have passed about half (the easier half) under the background of Matt's death. It can be said that without this ugly dance Matt, I wouldn't be halfway around the world today.

Maybe you are a little touched, maybe a little impatient. What does this have to do with the statue? Let's take a look at Matt's video in 2006:

The answer is version 06 3 minutes 18 seconds. The title below shows: Seattle.

And this idol who inspired me to set foot on the world journey, his hometown is in Seattle.

Now it's not hard to understand why I took such a photo.

I have no intention of collecting all the scenic spots in Seattle. After all, there are all kinds of tricks on the internet; I can't write an in-depth analysis of Seattle, because I am just a passer-by who stays for a few days after all. I just want to show you the charm that Seattle has brought me:

Or I went on a pilgrimage to Boeing for my childhood pilot dream, or I went to Starbucks for a day and a night of coffee, or I met an inconspicuous but touching statue on the street corner, or like me, it had something to do with my dream.

There are many different angles of loving Seattle in the comments: cherry blossoms in spring, fallen leaves in autumn, wet rainy days, various national parks, beaver teachers in the inland sea, the hometown of Steam, the Dota2 International Invitational Tournament, seattle supersonics, Grey's intern, and the place where she met her boyfriend.

She has a recognized business card of the skyline, which has different magic for everyone.
